Why Does SP Harrison Kiss Up To Paul McCain,
In Public, No Less?

Habemus papam! Habemus papam!


The LutherQuesies are enjoying another round about Ichabod. Pope Paul the Unlearned continues to ignore the boundaries of civil society. CPH, to everyone's surprise, backs him up.

My surprise is seeing SP Harrison virtually shining McCain's shoes on repeated Facebook posts. It is touching to see such devotion. It reminds me of J. Edgar Hoover's vacation snapshots with Clyde Tolson.

Plus SP Harrison photos of McCain visiting the Neville Chamberlain office at the Purple Palace, where he and Al Barry prepared Missouri for Jerry Kieschnick, women's ordination, and bankruptcy. "Oh the times we had," the photos seem to say. We snookered Otten and Bob Preus, while fooling their followers. Such fun!"

I expect periodic outbursts from McCain. He was never tempered by academic success or real parish work. The nuns at his Roman Catholic school probably abused him, or worse, flattered their token Lutheran.

Harrison's repeated identification with McCain puzzled me, until I realized - Paul must have delivered a lot of votes during the most political campaign in Missouri's very political history.

They were so obvious that I expected home visits from the highly paid Issues Etc staff, comp trips to St. Louis, and a lifetime subscription to the Arch books.

When the campaign was still on, and McCain still had posting rights on ALPB, someone asked him about Harrison. He made a remark about Harrison and the banjo. The remark sounded like a putdown, but I later realized it was a smokescreen. McCain was running another campaign for another LINO.
